AN MP who described himself as a “practising fruitcake” in Parliament will speak at Oxleas NHS Trust’s annual members’ meeting this month.

Chairman of the All Party Parliamentary Group on Mental Health Charles Walker will talk at the meeting at IndigO2 in Greenwich on September 26.

Oxleas NHS Foundation Trust provides mental health and learning disability services in Bexley, Bromley and Greenwich.

The MP, who has suffered from obsessive compulsive disorder for 30 years, has previously spoken about his experiences in an effort to break the taboo about mental health issues.

The meeting starts at 9am. E-mail foundation.trust@oxleas.nhs.uk if you would like to attend.
